Depression
Amy L. Holdbrooks, LLC
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, ALC, BSW
Even fleeting feelings of depression must not be minimized or dismissed. When depression sets in, it can feel ominous and dark, leaving one with an overwhelming sense of despair. Just as humans are complex, so are their reactions to the unpleasant onset of emotion. Depression is idiosyncratic. [One’s response to it is resolute, distinctive, and characteristic of only their composition.]

Depression
Gregory Smith
Counselor/Therapist, LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), BCPC
Depression can effect a person in many ways. My approach to treating depression attempts to find the original causes of the depression. Although depression can attack a person in several areas of life, there are usually certain reasons for them to be exhibiting depressive symptoms. Often therapy consists of prescribing a person an antidepressant and sending them on their way without ever addressing the reason they are depressed in the first place. I will work with you to find the underlying reasons why you are depressed.

Depression
Dr. Kristyn Neckles
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Depression does not always look like falling apart. You may still be working, achieving, caring for others, and meeting expectations while privately feeling exhausted, disconnected, unmotivated, or unlike yourself. Sometimes, functioning well on the outside can make it harder to recognize just how much you are carrying.
I help adults understand what may be contributing to these shifts and develop practical ways to move forward. Using evidence based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and mindfulness, we explore patterns in your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, relationships, and expectations of yourself.
Therapy is not about forcing positivity or simply pushing through. Together, we create space for greater self awareness, healthier coping, meaningful change, and reconnection with the parts of life that matter to you. You can be capable and still need support.

Hannah Muetzelfeld
Psychologist, PhD
I often work with individuals experiencing depression, using evidence-based approaches like behavioral activation to help clients re-engage with meaningful activities and break the cycle of low mood and withdrawal. Through values-based work, I support clients in identifying what truly matters to them and building a life aligned with those values, leading to a happier and more empowered self.

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address depression by providing a holistic and faith-based approach to healing. Integrating psychological insights with Christian principles, I incorporate prayer, scriptural guidance, and discussions on hope and faith into therapy sessions. Recognizing the spiritual dimension of depression, I help individuals explore the connection between their faith and emotional well-being. Encouraging clients to lean on biblical promises of comfort and strength, I integrate cognitive-behavioral strategies to challenge negative thought patterns. Fostering a sense of purpose and meaning in alignment with Christian values, I collaborate with clients to develop coping mechanisms, emphasizing the importance of seeking support from their faith community. This integrative approach aims to address the multifaceted aspects of depression, empowering individuals to find solace in their Christian beliefs and work towards emotional healing and recovery.
